{T}: Add {B}.

Whenever a creature you control dies, put a corpse counter on this artifact.

{4}{B}{B}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token with decayed for each corpse counter on this artifact. (A creature with decayed can't block. When it attacks, sacrifice it at end of combat.)

Watch Out

Exile prevents dies triggersRules Note

'Dies' means 'put into a graveyard from the battlefield.' If a creature is exiled instead of dying (Swords to Plowshares, Rest in Peace), dies triggers won't fire. Tokens do trigger 'dies' abilities briefly before ceasing to exist.

Mana abilities don't use the stackRules Note

If this card's activated ability produces mana and doesn't target, it's a mana ability. Mana abilities resolve immediately without using the stack — opponents can't respond to them. However, abilities that target (even if they produce mana) aren't mana abilities.
